₁Praise God with shouts of joy, all people!

₂Sing to the glory of his name;

offer him glorious praise!

₃Say to God, “How wonderful are the things you do!

Your power is so great

that your enemies bow down in fear before you.

₄Everyone on earth worships you;

they sing praises to you,

they sing praises to your name.”

₅Come and see what God has done,

his wonderful acts for mankind.

₆He changed the sea into dry land;

our ancestors crossed the river on foot.

There we rejoiced because of what he did.

₇He rules for ever by his might

and keeps his eyes on the nations.

Let no rebels rise against him.

₈Praise our God, all nations;

let your praise be heard.

₉He has kept us alive

and has not allowed us to fall.

₁₀You have put us to the test, God;

as silver is purified by fire

so you have tested us.

₁₁You let us fall into a trap

and placed heavy burdens on our backs.

₁₂You let our enemies trample over us;

we went through fire and flood,

but now you have brought us to a place of safety.
